Social preview

Paste a URL and see how it will render across Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Slack, Discord, Telegram, Instagram, and VK. The tool live-fetches the target page, parses its OG/Twitter/favicon tags, and renders platform-accurate previews side by side — no scoring, no history, no cache.

Use it to sanity-check a page before you share it, or to compare two variations without saving them to an audit report.

Reach for audit when you want a graded report you can share or revisit. Reach for social preview when you just want the cards and want to re-fetch on each change.

Using the tool

  1. Sign in to the dashboard.
  2. Open Tools → Social Preview in the sidebar.
  3. Paste a full URL (https://…) and hit Preview.
  4. Each platform card renders with the exact metadata that social crawlers will see.
